Benefit of a Fool

[Verse 1]

Tell me what

What about this woman makes me want to do right?

Want to switch it up and stay with her the whole night

I don't know

What it is, but it feels all right yeah

Lord knows I tried (Lord knows I tried)

Lord knows I tried to convince myself that it wasn't no lie (wasn't no lie)

But it wasn't no way I was lettin' this sweet love pass me by

Now I know

What it is

It was just my pride

[Chorus]

When has love (When has love)

Benefited a fool? (Benefited a fool)

I got nothing to lose (Nothing to lose)

But everything to prove to you

Now I know (Now I know)

I know what I got to do (I know what I got to do)

Just stop lying to you (Just stop lying, I'm gon just stop lying)

And tell you the truth

'Cause, when has love benefited a fool?

[Verse 2]

You are so fly

You know you should've been an angel (You know you should've been an angel)

With those diamond eyes

Girl you look good from every angle (You look good from every angle)

Now I see (Now I see)

Girl all this time you've just been waiting on me (You been waiting on me)

And I know I don't deserve all that I receive from your love

But you never leave no, no, no
